Dear Bell: I'll write you short letter
To say I'm wonderfully better;
How much that means you ought to know,
Who saw me just one month ago
Thin, nervous, fretful, white as chalk,
Almost too weak to breathe or talk:
Head throbbing, as if fit for breaking,
a weary, ever-present aching,
But now life seems different thing:
I feel as glad as bird on wing!
l say, and fear no contradiction,
That Pierce's Favorite Prescription
Is grand! Why, I'd of died without it'll
Ma thinks there's no mistake about it
It's driven all my ills away:
